They painted and re-organized the garage. They installed Anderson windows in 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms They repaired a walking shower, came up with a clever solution for an uncomfortable shower system. Likewise, they installed electrical outlets and lighting in the living rooms and painted 3 rooms with maximum efficiency and minimum fuss. I like their working style and their ingenuity.

"Contractor Rich Rivet of Cedar Falls Construction did the near impossible: He managed to transform a horrible, dilapidated, totally un-level original floor into a thing of hardwood beauty. Rich is a man of determination — he sees a problem and focuses all his attention and considerable talents (born of over 20 experience on many, many properties) on finding a solution. This floor was a mess, and I feared it was irretrievable, but he worked magic and found a way to turn it into something of beauty. Rich worked with me, constantly making sure of what I envisioned for the project, and that he was making that vision a reality. He wanted more than anything to make sure that I was happy with his work — every step of the way, as well as with the finished product. He takes great pride in his work, is a stickler for detail and making sure a job is done to perfection, and that the home owner is completely happy with the finished product. The team he has assembled is as top-notch as the contractor himself: wonderful people, pleasant, punctual, hard-charging, professional, courteous, and as exacting in their work as Rich Rivet is. I am confident in them all and happy too have them here working on my property."

"Being an investor/home flipper and Real Estate agent, the number of times that I need flooring, paint, tile, and kitchen/bathroom renos is countless. What I love most about Lissa is her communication. I know that if I send her a HUGE job or if I send her my gramma's backsplash job, she treats them all well. She's got crazy attention to detail and tailors every single conversation and project to the needs of the homeowner. She is an incredible resource for planning and design as well. What is the hottest paint color? Ask Lissa. What kind of cabinets are these? Ask Lissa. Will red wine stain this counter? Ask Lissa. Can I do a kitchen reno next week? Ask Lissa. Stop looking and start getting things done. Ask Lissa."

I'm a one-man operation, but I do a wide range of jobs from little fix-its to whole-room overhauls. I put a lot of care and attention to detail into my work, and I prioritize communication, timeliness, and cleanliness. I do free estimates and simple contracts that specify the work to be done and the price to be paid.

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, most insurance plans cover acts of nature. In policy documents, this also may be called “Acts of God” or “natural disasters.” However, not all acts of nature are covered by your policy, and the extent to which they’re covered depends on your specific contract. Check your policy documents to understand your coverage limits and exclusions.

After a house fire, you should not reenter your home unless the fire crew has told you it’s safe to do so. In the longer term, you should not attempt to make repairs to the house on your own. Professional crews are trained to clean up after a fire (including smoke and soot damage), dry out any water damage from the firefighter crews, and make the necessary structural, plumbing, and electrical repairs—and this is all likely covered by insurance.

Short circuits can cause significant damage to electrical appliances, bodily harm, and potentially death to humans. For this reason, they are a serious occurrence. If you’re unable to find and fix a short circuit on your own, you must reach out to a licensed electrician for help.

Luckily, you can typically eliminate your microwave’s burnt smell within a few hours for most situations. Be sure to let it air out for two to three hours after cleaning to let the odor evacuate your home—if you close your home up too early, the odor will be trapped. For stronger, more stubborn burnt smells, it might take a full day or more to really notice a difference. 

All of the components of stucco are non-combustible, so the siding material won’t ignite or spread fire to the interior of your home. However, it also expands and contracts with changes in temperature, so it will crack from long exposure to heat. Eventually, fire will spread through those cracks. Still, stucco is one of the best siding materials for fire protection and can keep you and your family safe for an hour, on average.
